Awesome, Awesome, Awesome!!!
Thank you so much for this awesome software. In my free time I edit 16th & 17th century Christian texts from EEBO-TCP, and format them for contemporary ePublication. This software does exactly what it says. After you install software to open RAR files, such as "RAR Opener," its a breeze to get going. The search through the 15,000 pages is almost instantaneous, and the scans are clear and crisp, and very easy to read. This software is such a blessing for us who cant afford the monthly or yearly subscription to the 2nd edition; and an awesome tool for those archaic words you cant find the meaning to anywhere else. All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you. God Bless.

Thankyou
To have access to such a great old dictionary is good for my Dhamma studies and practice. Hard to get such a work, with a search engine!

The best dictionary I have ever had the pleasure of using.
Absolutely incredible. I never thought that the largest dictionary I ever used would also simultaneously be the fastest to lookup words from. If you're here for the reviews first, download this because you won't be disappointed. It's great!

I downloaded this software over a year ago and found it to be a great study resource. I highly recommend it. It is completely word-searchable, and I like how the dictionary gives examples of each word’s use at different points in time.
